About Alaska Standard Time (AKST)

Alaska Standard Time (AKST, IANA: America/Anchorage and America/Juneau) is the time zone for most of the State of Alaska, set at UTC-9:00. AKST is observed from the first Sunday in November to the second Sunday in March per the Uniform Time Act of 1966 + Energy Policy Act of 2005; Alaska switches to Alaska Daylight Time (AKDT = UTC-8:00) for the remainder of the year. The vast Alaska time zone covers ~3,200 km east-to-west — from Ketchikan to Atka in the Aleutians — and is the only US time zone that spans more than 1,000 miles longitudinally, meaning solar-noon in different Alaska cities varies by over an hour from local clock time. Major population centers: Anchorage (~290,000), Fairbanks (~95,000), Juneau state capital (~32,000). Used in coordination of cruise-ship schedules through the Inside Passage, North Slope oil-pipeline operations, US Air Force JBER and Eielson AFB activities, and Alaska commercial fishing season openings managed by ADF&G.

About East Africa Time (EAT)

East Africa Time (EAT, IANA: Africa/Nairobi, Africa/Addis_Ababa) is the civil time for East African countries, set at UTC+3:00 year-round (no DST). EAT serves approximately 320 million people across: Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Djibouti, Somalia, South Sudan, Comoros, Madagascar (mainland — UTC+3), and Mayotte (French territory — UTC+3). EAT shares the same UTC offset as Moscow Standard Time (MSK), Saudi Arabian Standard Time (AST-SA), Turkey Time (TRT), and Eastern European Summer Time (EEST) — making coordination with the Middle East and Russia simple year-round. Major EAT cities: Cairo (22M metro — uses EET/CAT not EAT), Nairobi Kenya (4.4M city, 9M metro — diplomatic + UN headquarters for East Africa), Addis Ababa Ethiopia (5M city, 5.5M metro — African Union headquarters), Dar es Salaam Tanzania (5M city, 7M metro), Kampala Uganda (1.7M city, 4M metro), Mogadishu (2.6M), Khartoum (Sudan — uses CAT not EAT). Affects: Nairobi Stock Exchange (NSE) trading, Serengeti / Maasai Mara safari schedules, Kilimanjaro climbing-permit scheduling.
